If one home simply won't cut it, why not try four, spread across a 39-acre estate nestled along the edge of the Niagara Escarpment?

With four residences, a four-car coach house, luxury spa and pool house, and a natural waterfall, this newly listed property — Springhill Estate — serves as a magical world of its own.


Perched above the community of Dundas on the western edge of Lake Ontario, the property enjoys stunning vistas of the Dundas Valley, the Escarpment wall, Hamilton Bay, Lake Ontario, and the Skyway Bridge. And the beauty continues inside the residence, where Victorian-era architecture blends seamlessly with contemporary upgrades and designs.

As the listing agents put it, the estate "is more than a collection of properties; it is a haven for the soul."

Just off Highway 8, you'll find an entrance with a stone wall-flanked gateway. As you drive along the winding road, you'll quickly become enamoured as a meandering stream and the stunning expanses of Dundas Valley come into view. Approaching the home, the "zen garden" and other blooming flowers create an idyllic framing around the main home, which itself catches the eye with its charming exterior defined by Victorian-era architecture.

Specs

Inside, an ornate foyer clad with custom masonry, stained glass, and mosaic tiling sets the stage for the high level of craftsmanship and sophistication within. Throughout the home's many sitting and dining areas, history and modernity mesh to create elevated living spaces that use exposed wood, grand fireplaces, antique light fixtures, and thoughtful designs to bring the home into the 21st century.
The heart of the home is the newly renovated kitchen and lounge extension, which combine both historic and contemporary elements with the surrounding natural environment through the incorporation of skylights, wall-to-wall windows, and exposed brick (from what was once the exterior of the home).

Upstairs, the primary suite and other bedrooms have been upgraded with modern finishes, but like the main floor, also retain hints of the home's origins. The primary suite itself is spacious and enjoys a spa-like ensuite with a soaker tub, standing shower, and striking wood cabinetry.

Our Favourite Thing

The home is perfect for an industrious green thumb. Not only are there a plethora of flower gardens surrounding the main home to nurture, but throughout the grounds you'll find a vegetable garden, greenhouse, and an apple orchard with six different varieties of apples.

Just off the main house you'll find the "zen garden," where a picturesque patio sits ensconced by flourishing gardens, providing a rejuvenating spot for outdoor dining or simple relaxation. And for when you're looking to truly unwind, head to the spa and pool house, located just beyond the main home, beside the original barn.

The spa building itself is an architectural marvel, featuring a sculpture-like design with curving wood forms built into the earth. Inside, an in-ground pool, hot tub, and sauna await, and an attached guest residence provides the ultimate stay for guests.

Across its sprawling grounds and within its bespoke buildings, Springhill Estate offers a serene escape from everyday life, cradled by the lush topography of the Niagara Escarpment. The magical atmosphere and curated natural environment create a simply one-of-a-kind living experience that you'd be pressed to find anywhere else.
